Pre-Listing Home Inspection

A pre-listing home inspection helps identify and address issues before putting your home on the market, making it more attractive to buyers and potentially increasing its value. Selling a home? Show prospective purchasers that every effort has been made to disclose the condition of the home. A listing inspection can equal a faster sale. If the home inspection is performed before the house being listed, all parties will be aware of the physical condition of the house before an offer is drawn. There will be no surprises after the fact. Deals will not fall through. If all parties know the condition of the house before the offer, there is no need for renegotiation. As most real estate agents know, renegotiation is very difficult. Vendors have already mentally sold the house; purchasers are suffering buyers’ remorse. Egos, pride and frustration can muddy the already emotional waters. A pre-inspected listing allows the vendor to repair the problem before putting the house on the market.
